We hold this truth to be self evident. -- Mike, Norwalk

Gun Control: The absurd theory that a woman found dead in an alley, raped and strangled with her own panty hose is somehow morally superior to the woman explaining to Police how her attacker received a fatal gun shot wound. -- J Carlton, Calgary
I might add that if you are expecting the police to protect you, think again. After a thug comes into your gun free home and rapes your wife and then kills you both, the cops will be happy to make a report and try to find who did it. This will be a great comfort to your remaining friends and family. -- jim k, Austin, Tx
